OGRE has done the unthinkable. Through perfectly legal paperwork and aggressively cheerful branding, the One Global Ruling Empire has acquired control of Canada’s most sacred football tradition: the Dominion Cup Stadium. MONARCH — the Ministry of National And Royal Commonwealth Heroes — is deployed to oversee a “trial run” football event before OGRE’s vision goes live. If anything violates the bylaws, MONARCH can shut it down. Unfortunately, OGRE’s definition of “football” includes: weaponized mascots fog machines monetized patriotism and a referee who is, legally speaking, a moose As junior agents are divided into rival teams, corporate spectacle clashes with civic duty, and the nation watches a rehearsal that may decide the fate of the game — and Canadian dignity itself. A satirical superhero story about tradition, teamwork, bureaucracy, and what happens when marketing is allowed to call the plays.
